Nice coincidence for me, I am now reading (listening to CDs in the car) "Cod: the biography of the fish that changed the world." Cod, of course, mostly means the NE coast of North America, Iceland, and islands east of there.
Salt cod was transported to Europe, the Caribbean, and the Mediterranean in the days of sail, so moving it in 2000 shouldn't be a problem-- IF it can be cured.
Salt itself had to be found elsewhere. The Caribbean (I forget which islands) and Spain were some sources.
